“A Home Away from Home Our recent stay at Glanduad fawr was nothing short of idyllic.”

Nestled amidst breathtaking Welsh countryside, this charming house offered the perfect blend of comfort and tranquility. The interior was beautifully decorated with a cozy and welcoming atmosphere. The kitchen was well-equipped, making it a joy to prepare meals. The living room provided a comfortable space to relax and unwind, with the log burner being a real treat. The dining room was beautiful , with original 17th century panels, and a huge table perfect for 12, or even for playing Dungeons ...

Nestled amidst breathtaking Welsh countryside, this charming house offered the perfect blend of comfort and tranquility. The interior was beautifully decorated with a cozy and welcoming atmosphere. The kitchen was well-equipped, making it a joy to prepare meals. The living room provided a comfortable space to relax and unwind, with the log burner being a real treat. The dining room was beautiful , with original 17th century panels, and a huge table perfect for 12, or even for playing Dungeons and dragons! The bedrooms were peaceful and inviting, and the contemporary en-suites stunning, with all mod cons. We particularly loved the cottage's proximity to Castell Henllys, and the lovely little village of Newport. Whether we were exploring the quaint villages, hiking through the picturesque countryside, breathtaking coastline, or simply enjoying the peace and quiet, there was always something to do. The owners were incredibly friendly and helpful, ensuring that we had everything we needed for a memorable stay. Their attention to detail was evident throughout our visit. We would highly recommend Glanduad fawr to anyone seeking a relaxing and enjoyable getaway. It's the ideal place to escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life and reconnect with nature. We will definitely book again for our next family get-together.

“Absolutely loved our stay at Glanduad Fawr and what an awesome experience to be able to stay in my ancestral home!”

Martin and James did a fantastic job renovating the place and keeping as much of the original features as they could and enhancing the home with modern comforts. The surroundings are beautiful, easy access to Newport, Cardigan, Fishguard and Haverford West as well as local pubs and villages to visit. Nearby Nanhyfer / Nevern (pronounced never~n) and St Brynach Church are definitely worth a visit and it’s only a short walk up to the old Nanhyfer Castle and Pilgrim’s Cross. I shall be writing up my family history and send a copy for the house information pack. Thank you again for your hospitality Martin & James. We shall be back. :o) Nic, Mark, Nathaniel, Nika, Sue Smith and The Sunshines.

“We (a group of 12 people– aged from 3 to 70 years) recently stayed at Glanduad Fawr for a much-needed holiday, and it was an absolutely delightful experience!”

The location is perfect, nestled in a peaceful area yet close enough to local attractions and beautiful beaches. The property itself was immaculately clean, tastefully decorated, equipped with all the amenities we needed for a comfortable stay and offers a perfect blend of comfort and luxury. The host (Mr. Martin) was incredibly warm and welcoming, offering helpful recommendations for local dining and activities, which made our trip even more enjoyable. The outdoor space, particularly the garden, stream and pool, provided a serene environment to relax and unwind. The bed was comfortable, and we appreciated the thoughtful touches like fresh towels, complimentary toiletries, and a well-stocked kitchen. Overall, Glanduad Fawr exceeded our expectations. Whether you're looking for a quiet retreat or a base for exploring the area, this place has it all. We highly recommend it and would love to return!

“Our two nights at Glanduad Fawr was brilliant and we fully intend to come back and enjoy the property more and the surrounding area.”

Martin, the host, was incredibly welcoming, friendly and helpful. The property is immaculate, having been recently renovated. All 6 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms were spacious. The lounge was comfy, the dining room beautiful and everything you need in the kitchen. Several people can operate in their without colliding, which is useful. The peaceful outside patio and garden is a real treat and was protected from the coastal winds in our time there. As a group of mature adults with young teens and a dog, this was most definitely one of our favourite holiday homes and we all agreed it will find a regular spot in our calendars in the future. A brilliant house!

“Wow what an amazing place.”

The house has been sympathetically restored retaining original character along with all the modern conveniences that modern living require. The bedrooms are spacious with lovely quality bedding & furniture. The bathrooms are lovely - luxury hotel style with character reutilisation of existing features from the former dairy. The towels especially are of excellent quality, and lovely to have bath sheets not just towels. The kitchen provides everything you could need, with the breakfast room providing additional area for casual dining. The dining room is magnificent! The panelled walls are wonderful with surprises in the hidden cupboards (providing more crockery, glasses and the hosts have even through of a cocktail shaker!) The living room is a lovely place to gather , socialise and relax. The grounds are breathtaking and the ambience is so relaxing - the lack of light pollution means that you have lovely clear skies at night, perfect for those who like to look out for the auroras we’ve been blessed with lately! Finally the host Martin is wonderful - you can tell he has put his heart and soul into this project. He is welcoming, friendly and informative of the local area. We have rented Lots of houses over the years and this is definitely one of the best. Will definitely look to return.

“We have just returned from a week staying at Glandaud Fawr.”

It is such an amazing place to stay. The house is generously proportioned and set in stunning scenery. Martin has thought of absolutly everything and is so incredibly kind, he was a brilliant 'host'. The house is spotless, has top quality bedding and towels and excellent facilities. We could not have asked for a better place to stay. We've rented lots of places over the years and this one was a real favourite. Martin has excellent local knowledge, we used several of his recommendations over our week and they were all spot on, from fish and chips to dolphin tours. The house has lots of added extras that some properties we've rented don't and these make a big difference when you're away. There was a lovely welcome package, and Martin was there to greet us and show us around which was a marvellous start. The children loved the stream and the pond and we relished the quiet. The bathrooms are numerous and hotel quality, it's a really fabulous house to stay in. We will absolutely be looking to book again, the location is excellent and easy to find, with several excellent beaches a short drive away. We really did have a great holiday and if you're wondering if this house will suit you and your group we would recommend it without hesitation.

The property

The perfect destination for a big family get-together or a gathering of family and friends for a special occasion, Glanduad Fawr is a simply outstanding property located at Felindre Farchog, close to the charming village of Nevern and the town of Newport on the Pembrokeshire coast.

Enjoying a truly beautiful setting with lawns, woodlands, a pond and a river helps to create a true rural idyll and gives the property a real sense of tranquility.

This is the ideal spot for getting away from it all and as soon as you’ve parked up and unloaded, you can breathe in the fresh Pembrokeshire air and start to relax.

Step into the spacious property and as you explore the house, you get a sense of the character and charm of this grand old country abode.

Take a seat in the ample sitting room complete with comfy seating, a Smart TV and a feature woodburning stove, which all add up to create a really inviting room and is somewhere you can imagine spending lots of time relaxing and catching up with each other during your holiday.

The good-sized kitchen is fully equipped with everything that is necessary to create delicious food for the holiday party.

Guests can choose from an elegant dining room set up for 12 where you can look forward to memorable dinner parties or for something slightly less formal, take a seat in the breakfast room, perfect for breakfast or brunch on the go.

When the sun shines, take a seat on the outside terrace and enjoy time eating and drinking alfresco.

When it’s bedtime, you can take your pick from six beautifully appointed bedrooms ranging from a ground-floor twin to five king-sizes arranged over the first and second-floors and with five bathrooms to choose from, no need to worry about queuing for the bathroom in the morning!

Talking of mornings, when it’s time to get up, you’re already in the perfect location for getting out and about exploring so after a hearty breakfast and a coffee on the terrace, you’re good to go.

A short walk along the riverbank footpath will take you to the local village of Felindre Farchog, where the Salutation Inn awaits for a fine country meal and glass of wine.

Newport is a popular coastal town with its Golden Sands an inviting prospect for young and young-at-heart alike and is also home to a number of popular eateries such as Llys Meddyg, the Castle Inn and The Golden Lion.

The historians of the group will marvel at your location as next door is Castell Henllys Iron Age Hill Fort whilst a short drive takes you to the picture postcard sight of Pentre Ifan, an iconic Neolithic Burial Chamber.

If nature is more your thing, then the nearby Dyfed Shire Horse Farm in Eglwyswrw tells the story of its proud links to Army parade Drum Horses, whilst a visit further north to the popular market town of Cardigan offers the opportunity to take a boat trip out into Cardigan Bay to meet the resident bottle nosed dolphins and don't forget to make a visit to the Welsh Wildlife Centre near Cilgerran whilst you're in the area.

For some exercise, a hike up into the nearby Preseli Hills and up to Carningli allows for stunning views of the Cardigan Bay coastline.

For an idyllic holiday in an idyllic location, make Glanduad Fawr your first choice.
